OHC LifeChanger

December 28, 2007

Volume 3, Issue 12

Welcome

Everyone has a story. Once we understand that everyone is more than they seem, that they have — as they say in movie-land — a backstory, then their lives become as fascinating as our own. We are very fortunate in the clinic that our clients, for the past 10 years, have trusted us with their stories — each one unique, each one multi-layered and exquisite in its complexity and relationship to the planet.

If there's one thing I've discovered, it is that we are all the same yet amazingly, beautifully different. We all feel joy and sadness, anger and peace, and yet for some of us, we have a hard time showing our emotions. Especially the good stuff! I suggest we make 2008 a year of celebrating the good stuff in each one of us, letting go of the criticism on the road, in the office, and in the home. Look for and find the good stuff.... It is there...though sometimes like diamonds beneath the coal, deeply hidden. Once we find the hidden "good stuff" to celebrate, we can never un-know it, and that makes living on this planet, at this time, wondrous.

Namaste,
Georgina

Are You a Winner?
by Rohit Bhalunkar
The battle for your success is fought and won nowhere else but in your mind. Your success or failure does not depend upon where you are born or brought up, your bank balance, or even your level of formal education. Although I am a believer in the value of a good education, I'll weigh a sharp mind, determination, ethics, and perseverance over it every time.

Your success or failure does not depend upon what your family, your friends, your peers, or your co-workers feel are your "chances."

Your success depends on what you have inside. So, are you a winner?

Can you withstand failure? Because most winners fail. In fact, a great many winners fail over and over and over again. Are you able to be knocked down or knocked out in your attempts to succeed but have enough courage and tenacity to get up time and time again, brush yourself off, figure out what went wrong, what you did wrong, and then start again?

Are you strong enough to break through or break free of limitations you put upon yourself or that others have placed on you? Are you able to lift yourself beyond your current circumstances? Can you drive yourself forward, even when it means challenging and overcoming immense fear?

Winning is a hard, difficult business. If it was easy, everybody would be winners. People get tired; people get lazy; people change their minds about what they want and what they're willing to settle for.

Are you a winner? I don't know, but I believe you have what it takes to succeed, or you wouldn't be here. I believe that there is a reason and a time and a place for everything. I believe that's why you're reading these words right now.

Just Because You Can
by Ralph Marston

This day is not happening to you. It is happening through you.

The way you see the world does not merely affect what you think and feel about all that is going on. The way you see the world determines how the world will be.

Your thoughts are not just momentary flashes that disappear once you are finished with them. They are powerful forces that give energy and direction to life.

The events and situations that come your way are not just random occurrences. There is a reason you have put yourself in a position to experience them.

The things that are possible are the things that you imagine and expect to be possible. Raise your imagination and your expectations to new levels, and the world follows right along.

This day is happening because you are here to live it. Make it truly grand and exquisitely beautiful, just because you can.
